I think just calling it a PS5 with full backwards compatibility to PS4 would be easier to understand and also give justification to exclusives. 

Yea, he's kinda contradicting himself there.  He says a Pro 2 because Sony won't want to reset the next gen, though that has never hurt them before, and then says they can call it PS5 if they want.  Calling it PS5 is what resets the gen.  Even if it's B/C with PS4, that still counts as a reset, and has been done plenty of times before.

Well, what really resets the generation is a new line of games exclusive to a new platform.

 

This isn't the case with a New 3DS, though, since there are only a couple of actually new games for it and releasing N3DS exclusive games en masse was never the intention.
